Hey Huffman,
If you think you are smart and don't like "stupid" questions, it is
good 4 u, but let us "non smart as you " people try 2 reach your level.
That's how some countries move from third world to 1st world countries,
because they are modests and asks questions and learn from it.
I have just used the answer of the question on date format in my script
and i have save time and do something else and useful because of that
'stupid question that upsets you'. You sound like those people who
thought that they were superior and started concentration camps.
thank you
etienne
